Below is another photo from Ants collection but can you name the players and more importantly what year it was and why the team were giving an interview.  |

Top row: Chris Curran, Ashley Bayes, Bucks, David Byng, Scott Stamps, Simon Travis and Dick Handjob. Bottom: Tom Kelly, Ellis Laight and Ian Ian Hathaway. Been racking my brains but can't think of the reason for the interview, must of been round '96

This is from Spotlight’s preview of the 1995/96 season.
Tom Kelly is doing his Billy Connolly routine, telling Natalie that one of our midfielders is sha**ing the goalie’s wife and will get sent to Exeter City on a free transfer when he gets found out, that he reckons we will lose 8-1 at home to Scunthorpe and that we will finish the season eleven points adrift at the foot of the table.
How they all laughed!
Natalie “Plymouth Argyle” Cornah spoiled the light-hearted mood of the interview by commenting that no team intending to perm any two from Byng, Laight and Hancox up front had a cat in hell’s chance of finishing within eleven points of anyone.
Now for the serious answer. I reckon Dave might still be thinking Chelsea friendlies here, so I’ll guess that the occasion is the visit of Chelsea and Ruud Gullit to Plainmoor for a friendly on 1 August 1995. They only beat us 5-0, which goes to show that Gullit is less lethal in front of goal than Andy McFarlane

...Wasn't that the team that ran out to the "Young ones" song.
Could the interview have something to do with the fact that none of the team/squad were married?
